Key Technologies

• Heads-Up Display
• City Braking

Detailed Features

The heads-up display is similar to the technology used by Mini's parent company, BMW, in its vehicles. The city braking system, as the name suggests, is a collision detection system that operates using a front-mounted camera. This system detects objects in the vehicle's path as well as street signs. It is also utilized for:

• Adaptive cruise control
• Auto dimming headlights

The rear camera provides parking assistance to the driver. Overall, while these technologies are not entirely new, it’s commendable to see them integrated into a vehicle priced under AED 150,000.
